Ganker Fail: Love Bumps


Specialist Kip Winger (Legion) and myself (Falcon) were on patrol in Niarja, as we had spotted a Tornado on the Kaaputenen gate, and a Vexor ganker ( Criminal: BIM BOOM BADABOOM ) in system, who was targeting the Madirmilire gate.

After activating BBB's 5M KR and chasing him away, we went into Madirmilire and spotted a bumped Fenrir ( Pilot: ALLTHEWAY ) who soon logged off.

Jin Kugu was the bumper and the Fenrir was soon aggressed.

22:17:01    Notify     BeepBeep Onzo, criminals are not welcome here. Leave now or be destroyed.
22:17:10    Combat    Warp scramble attempt from CONCORD Police Captain to BeepBeep Onzo (Blackbird)


The Fenrir warped to Ashab gate, and Jin followed.

I deployed combat probes on Niarja gate and waited for the Fenrir to return to the 1M km logoff point off the Niarja gate,

Kip and I landed near the Fenrir, as did Jin Kugu.

And then we waited.
And waited.

2 looters showed up in a freighter and an Impel

We waited some more.
We assumed Jin was on the gank batphone, calling for help.

The Fenrir had to be aggressed again by an Ibis.

22:30:01    Notify    Mayonaise Mayaki, criminals are not welcome here. Leave now or be destroyed.

Meanwhile, Private Fylth  was monitoring the situation in Kamio and noticed the number of Goonion Reds had grown to 18.

I switched to a bumper fit Omen and waited at the Niarja gate.

Fylth saw the undock...
[22:49:22] Fylth > purifiers and taloses
[22:49:28] Thomas en Chasteaux > ick
[22:49:34] Thomas en Chasteaux > rgr
[22:49:49] Kip Winger > oh boy
... and raced ahead of the fleet to point two of the Talos.

[22:50:58] Fylth > planning to take 2 out on kaap gate


He made good on his promise.

 Kill: BAE B PEW (Talos)


 Kill: Unfit ForDoody (Talos)


The fleet paused for a while, and did not enter Mad for some time.
The Fenrir had to be aggressed again.

[22:56:08] Kip Winger > Mayonaise aggressed again

Finally, the gank fleet entered Madirmilira, but through the Bahromab gate. (clever girls!)
I warped on grid with the Omen bumper, and gave it a gentle nudge.

[23:07:13] Kip Winger > nice bump Thomas

Still, they paused, and waited, then finally...

[23:09:17] Kip Winger > nothing on dscan yet.....
[23:09:52] Thomas en Chasteaux > concord pulled
[23:10:04] Thomas en Chasteaux > incoming

The Talos, Purifiersand Catalysts appeared on DScan.

The gank fleet landed, right after I gave the Fenrir one final gentle caress.  (overheated, of course)

The bump was good! The fleet was out of optimal range, and did not fire.
The gank fleet warped away, and then...

[23:10:59] Thomas en Chasteaux > YES!!!
[23:11:02] Kip Winger > did it dissapear
[23:11:05] Kip Winger > AWWWWWW YA!!!!
[23:11:19] Thomas en Chasteaux > Victory lap!
[23:11:25] Kip Winger > I recorded the whole thing!!
[23:11:27] Fylth > :)
[23:11:33] Thomas en Chasteaux > vrrromm

The Fenrir disappeared from grid.   It was saved.

As of 00:21, the pilot had not logged back on, although Jin Kugu awaited, cloaked on the last position of the Fenrir, skulking and grumbling.

Thanks to Kip and Fylth who helped make this save possible tonight!

Oh. And one more thing...
